Potassium aluminum borate (K2Al2B2O7) is an ionic compound composed of potassium ions, aluminum ions, and tetraborate ions. Its crystal form exhibits nonlinear optical properties. The ultraviolet beam at 266nm can be obtained by fourth harmonic generation (FGH) of 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser radiation through a nonlinear crystal K2Al2B2O7 (KABO).
